Windows Seven x64 work?
Please try Plot News v2.0 instead. Version 1.xx is no longer supported - use it at your own risk.

Anyway, both versions seem to run happily enough on Win XP. I don't run either Vista or Win 7, so I have no way of testing the code on these platforms. You'll need to try it for yourself.

I installed the latest version (release 3.10) but when it creates the csv file the economic data stops at date 05/20/2011.
Am I doing something wrong or the news indicator is not working? maybe the calendar address changed after that date?

Hi,

I woulid like to use FFCal in EA.

In mql4 file, there are these comments:

Quote

// EA Setting variables
extern int MinsBeforeNews = 5; // mins before an event to stay out of trading
extern int MinsafterNews = 5; // mins after an event to stay out of trading

// Global variable at top of file
bool NewsTime;

// Function to check if it is news time
void NewsHandling()
{
static int PrevMinute = -1;

if (Minute() != PrevMinute)
{
PrevMinute = Minute();

int minutesSincePrevEvent =
iCustom(NULL, 0, "FFCal", true, true, false, true, true, 1, 0);

int minutesUntilNextEve nt =
iCustom(NULL, 0, "FFCal", true, true, false, true, true, 1, 1);

NewsTime = false;
if ((minutesUntilNextEvent <= MinsBeforeNews) ||
(minutesSincePrevEvent <= MinsAfterNews))
{
NewsTime = true;
}
}
}//newshandling

How can i use NewsHandling() function for send an order for High impact 5 minutes before news ?


Quote

if( NewsHandling() !=0 ) OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_BUY, [...];


right ?

ty for help,

S.T

The NewsHandling() function does not apply to this indy. Perhaps you were referring to the indy in Derk Wehler's thread?

Hi

Im very happy with the FFCal Fix indicator except for the fact that until it plots a vertical news item on screen for the first time in a new week it has a permanant vertical solid black line (on my white chart) on every new candle period.

Anyone know how to fix this please ?

Cheers
